Now I am guessing we are all familiar with those old images of the Flat Iron Market, taken in the early 20th century, along with the stories of just what you could buy from a second hand pair of clogs to a hand me down shawl.
They may have gone but have been replaced by the Food Banks which seem to me to be doing a similar job helping those who are being squeezed in a Britain we are told is affluent and busy.
But there are those other markets which pop up every month selling artisan bread, curios for the living room and tucked away the old stall selling essential.
This was one of those new markets, in the shadow of the Lowry on Saturday.
